["Eye-sensing Light Field Display / Delivering 3D Creators' Visions to Customers the Way They Intended\n\n3D displays have great potential for various applications, such as showroom displays and entertainment. Conventional 3D displays, however, suffer from issues such as low content resolution, the hassle of wearing 3D glasses, and 3D motion sickness. The Eye-sensing Light Field Display (ELFD) developed by Sony is a new type of 3D display that has the potential to solve these issues. By working together with creators to develop not only the content but also the production environment, we aim to popularize this system in a wide range of fields.\n\nA 15-inch diagonal prototype was exhibited at CES2020. As long as the content fits within these dimensions, it can be displayed as a high-definition, three-dimensional object.\n\nELFD uses three of Sony's proprietary technologies: (1) High-speed, high-accuracy, real-time sensing technology, (2) Real-time light field rendering technology, and (3) High-precision 3D display technology.\n\nThe main concept behind the development of ELFD was facilitating and helping to bring the 'Creator's Intent' to life. This technology is not only impressive on a technical level, but it's also a vehicle through which creators can express their ideas. Therefore, during the development process, great emphasis was placed on dialogue with creators. We wanted to allow creators to produce ELFD content with tools they are familiar with, so we created a software development kit (SDK) that supports Unity and Unreal Engine, two of the most widely used platforms in the 3D content production field."]
